Spontanious Combustion?

Since neo-tf started I have noticed a large amount unexplained deaths! Have you ever been running in an empty hallway in your own base and just dropped dead? A little skull and crossbones before your name as if you killed yourself? Is this just me? Is there some sort of demon of theville who stalks amazing players?

hehe It is really disturbing dying like that. It's just plain creepy is what it is.

That darn NEOTF is evil, teslas now this! Actually it is most likely just mirror damage from an mg. You play engineer right? Someone probably got in the way of your tesla, or some idiot on your team killed it, killing you with mirror damage. The little kill symbol things for NTF only show skulls for kills or suicides unless you download that thing Roof posted.

KRG this has happened to me too but most of the time I can trace it back to me taking the damage from one of my teamates getting hit by my mg's blast or a certain spy named species who is always where you don't expect him to be unless he is on your team. But if he is not around it's usally friendly fire at least for me.

I don't think it's a case of instantanious combustion but is because someone spawned on top of you. Like if you walk in your base in avanti, sometimes someone would just spawn on you and you die. (i think that's how this work)

dont forget about that gernade or 2 you left behind just as you died. They can kill you dead from Mirror.
